Malawi Likely To Experience Minimal Decrease

In Role Of Government Sanctioned Non-State Actors Over the Next Five Years

1_GS.jpg


Executive Summary:
Due to minimal levels of instability, a minimal level of democracy, significant difficulty in doing business, and corruption levels akin to totalitarian states, Minimal_Dec.jpgMalawi retains a score of 1 on the Government Sanctioned side of the
non-state actor role potential spectrum. This indicates that it is likely that lawful non-state actors play little role in the country, because of the instability and significant levels of government control over the socio-political environment; even though Malawi is democratizing, interest groups are still underdeveloped in the country. Lawful non-state actors that do play a role in Malawi include Illovo Sugar, and newly formed trade unions such as the Congress of Malawi Trade Unions. However, due to high HIV/AIDS rates, tensions between ethnic groups, and price drops in vital commodities, the role of lawful non-state actors in Malawi is likely to minimally decrease over the next five years.
